Abstract
A completely self-contained device reduces the NO,content in the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine operated with excess air. One or more reduction catalytic converters working according to the SCR principle are provided. A reducing agent control unit need not make any recourse to data present in the control unit of the internal combustion engine. Fitting and retrofitting to a vehicle is greatly simplified, particularly for vehicles that are already in use.
